we have very few people in syria. the idea that we could estimate 9% of the rebels are any one group is ludicrous. i think we will be surprised in syria as we were surprised in iraq, surprised in afghanistan. what is significant is we have figured out there is a group that is fighting very well. these guys are real good fighters. that it's very dangerous and this will complicate the effort to help the syrian rebels enormously. >> how big of an influence then is al qaeda in the rebels? we don't know exactly how many, but when you thing about it and hear about it, how significant is al qaeda? >> i think it's very important to understand, again, we don't know whether this is al qaeda inspired, al qaeda connected or al qaeda directed. those are three different phenomenon. my guess is it's al qaeda inspired. this is a local jihadi group. perhaps there's qatari money, but these guys are really fanatical islamists but they're not getting their military orders from zawahiri. it makes it very difficult for the united states to

are these individuals from syria or is this conflict attracting militants from overseas? >> reporter: according to western intelligence officials, according to syrians and personally speaking from individuals i have spoken to over the course of covering this conflict, it is definitely attracting people from the region and overseas. i personally have met with rebel fighters that have come from libya, even some from egypt who have wanted to go to syria to fight. they see this as a larger ideological conflict. the government is a staunchly secular one. they believe syria is engaged in what they consider a jihad or a holy war, and they're using that to rally muslims from all around the world to come and join the fight. western intelligence sources and others have reported on the participation of fighters from the caucuses, central asia, as well as from iraq and other neighboring countries. there's no doubt it is galvanizing many fighters to come and join what they say is a religious fight against secularism. >> we've heard talk of an increasingly desperate syrian government c
